Strawberry season is just a matter of days away. Strawberries are a common favourite of Hungarian and foreign guests, and many people don't even know what a great source of vitamins they are for our bodies.
The perfect summer dessert: yoghurt and strawberries
An unbeatable pairing of light yet rich tart yoghurt on a soft sponge cake topped with sweet, spicy red-red strawberries. Fork by fork, we count how many strawberry crumbs are left on top and try to get every crumb to stick to our cookie fork. In the heat, this is perhaps the one cake that no one turns down because it's light, chilled and not only easy to make, but also available ready to use for anyone.
Storing the cakes in summer
Confectioners and caterers work under strict rules and regulations all year round, but especially in the heat. This is no coincidence, because in the heat all bacteria spread and multiply more easily, so our food spoils more quickly. In the fridge, it doesn't matter what you put next to the cakes, they may taste “chilled” if left uncovered. Storage requires special attention, which not everyone has the opportunity to do. This is why strawberry yoghurt slices is available even if you don't start making it, just take a slice out of the freezer.
Does regular consumption of strawberries and yoghurt extend life?
All the evidence and research suggests that yoghurt should be eaten all year round, and strawberries in season, because they have been shown to have a positive effect.
Let's look at the specifics! The recommended intake of strawberries is 15-25 dkg of fresh strawberries per day. If you consume this sweet little red treat regularly, i.e. daily, for 1.5-2 months, researchers have shown that it can also help to repair inflammation and back inflammation in your body. Yoghurt is even more effective. Mechnikov, a Russian biologist, was awarded the Nobel Prize for proving that the bacteria in yoghurt and kefir have such a powerful beneficial effect on the body that they have been shown to extend the lifespan of mountain people whose diets included a large proportion of yoghurt. In other words, the live bacteria in yoghurt prevent the bad bacteria in the body from multiplying, i.e. they prevent our bodies from breaking down.
The ultimate treat - sugar-free too!
It glows red for the first time on market stalls, in the open air, in foil, in window boxes, in hanging pots. Strawberries signify the beginning of summer, the approach of Children's Day, and a little bit of cheer. Fruit and sunshine go hand in hand, producing a happy hormone with its vitamins, especially vitamin D. That's why this screaming, bright red fruit is one that children, adults and elderly alike can't refuse, arriving on the plate as dessert. Make the most of it! Given its vitamin content, let's try to sneak strawberries into everything, especially light cakes, whether sugary or sugar-free!#
